Poor diet, alcohol consumption and cigarette smoking constitute a major public health concern for West Bengal, India. These behaviours are increased among day by day among students which are problematic particularly in their concentration and physical fitness. It is well documented that cigarette smoking has negative impacts on body health, as well as social health, economy, culture, etc. So, the purpose of this study was to examine smoking behaviour and physical activity (PA) in Purba Medinipur, India and to examine cigarette smoking among young students based on education status. 50 young students (35 male, 15 female & aged 18-21 years old) from various colleges who are started cigarette smoking (minimum 2-3 cigarette / day) for 1-2 years continuously were selected. The study period was from July, 2015 to June 2016. Standardized questionnaires were supplied. The tests were used to record anthropometric data, health-related information, smoking behaviour, dietary habits and PA status. Smoking causes both immediate and long-standing effects on exercise and physical activity. Smokers also have less endurance, poorer physical performance, increased rates of injury and complications. As the college students are suffers with addiction of nicotine as well as smoking so their physical activity is reduced significantly.

Objective. We investigated the occurrence of recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) among college students and its potential influence by dietary habits. Methods. Study of dietary habits and RAS among students in Beijing University of Chinese Medicine was carried by homemade questionnaire. Multivariate binary logistic regression analysis was used to identify RAS risk factors and explore their relations. Results. Among 1011 investigated college students, family history (odds ratio (OR) 1.678, 95% confidence intervals (CI) 1.192 to 2.364, p<0.05), bed late (OR 1.515, 95% CI 1.005 to 2.285, p<0.05), frequent thirst (OR 1.842, 95% CI 1.393 to 2.435, p<0.001), and frequent drinking carbonated beverages (OR 1.369, 95% CI 1.029 to 1.821, p<0.05) were independent risk factors for RAS, but preference for nuts (OR 0.607, 95% CI 0.448 to 0.824, p<0.001) was a protective factor. There was no statistical difference in fruit intake between RAS and non-RAS groups (χ2 = 5.249, p>0.05). Conclusions. Among college students, frequent drinking carbonated beverages or frequent thirst will increase its possibility, whereas preference for nuts provides protection. In addition, fruit intake does not have a positive effect.

No published study has been tracked to date on the physical activity (PA) and dietary habits (DH) of Filipino college students. Thus, this cross-sectional study aimed to determine (1) the prevalence of regular PA among college students in a Philippine setting and (2) the reasons for either adherence to PA or for being inactive, (3) to describe DH of the students, (4) to compare PA involvement and DH across year levels, and (5) to correlate PA and diet behaviors. Data were collected using a self-administered survey questionnaire. Results showed that only 32.8% of the 1,706 students in this study engaged in regular PA. There were greater proportions of inactivity at higher-year levels (62.5%, 66.5%, 76.5%, and 84.8% in the first, second, third and&nbsp;fourth year, respectively). The major reason for inactivity was lack of time, while the students’ PA adherence was largely due to predisposing factors such as knowledge about PA, beliefs in benefits and enjoyment of PA, and confidence in performing physical activity. About one of every three students in each year level had below-average to poor dietary habits, meaning they seldom eat proper types of food. Findings of this study indicate the need for an intervention that will effectively increase regular PA and ensure proper food intake in the student population.
